We use Kronos. Remote clocks with magnetic stripe cards. Very happy. Kronos was a little late coming to the 400 but it was like coming to Jesus - they love it. http://www.kronos.com It uses a modem on the 400 to dial out to each of the clocks and download data.

A lot of individual departments are looking at standalone PC clock systems and of course they all found a different version that they like. I have been asked to find a single system that will provide campus wide timeclock solution. Our environment is.... AS/400 720 - lots of spare disk and CPU time - 2 100MB ethernet NICs 25+ Novell Netware Servers for email, file and print sharing Full campus wide ethernet network (including 3 remote sites) AS/400 and Netware servers share data via FTP controlled from the AS/400 LAWSON Payroll All employees and students have mag stripe and bar-coded id cards 8 In-house AS/400 experienced programmers and technical staff. I believe the best solution would be ethernet connected mag stripe readers for timeclocks that can do immediate relay to the AS/400 or store local for later transmission in case the AS/400 is down for backup/upgrade and the rare but happen repairs. With management applications on the AS/400 to allow review, supervisor approval, reporting and transfer into our LAWSON Payroll. Has anyone out there implemented this type of system and if so how did you do it and what hardware/software do you use ?
